Ericsson Global Capability Center (Gurugram)

Ericsson Global India in Gurugram is one of the country's most significant telecommunications technology GCCs, with approximately 20,000 engineers contributing to the development of the radio and core network software that powers 5G deployments globally. Established in 2001, the India engineering organisation has grown into Ericsson's largest engineering presence outside Sweden and the United States, working on the full stack of telecommunications infrastructure software — from radio access network algorithms to cloud-native network core functions, OSS management, and AI-powered network analytics.

The 5G software engineering work at Ericsson India is technically deep and globally impactful. Radio access network software teams write the signal processing algorithms and protocol implementations that determine how efficiently Ericsson's 5G base stations use radio spectrum — a domain requiring advanced mathematics, real-time programming in C/C++, and deep knowledge of telecommunications standards. Cloud-native network functions development is a growing priority, as operators globally demand software that can run on commodity cloud infrastructure rather than Ericsson-proprietary hardware, enabling more flexible and cost-efficient network deployment.

Ericsson India targets 22,000 employees by 2027, with growth in 5G core engineering, cloud-native networking, and AI for network intelligence. The Gurugram campus in DLF Industrial Area provides a well-established engineering environment, and Ericsson's position as one of only three credible global 5G infrastructure vendors gives India engineers a rare opportunity to work at the frontier of telecommunications technology with direct global market impact.
